Wizard: This witcher is not doing his job properly

The next morning, the first thing Wayne did when he opened his eyes was to open the task system to check whether the previous commission was completed.

The results were pretty good. The system seemed quite user-friendly in this regard. Although he handed over the follow-up of the task to Geralt, the missing person task entrusted by Misha was already shown to be completed.

He gained forty-five experience points and an expert chest.

The rewards for expert-level tasks are generous, which is almost equivalent to the experience rewards of fifteen ordinary-level tasks. It is estimated that after this ruins exploration mission is completed, his demon hunter level will be raised to level six, and his strength will increase slightly again.

Of course, expert-level tasks are quite difficult.

For example, in this missing person mission, if Wayne and Geralt insist on going their own way and want to use strong methods to take away the two young people, they will have to conflict with these more than a hundred non-human races, and it will inevitably be a war. .

Instead of completing the commission for the elves to solve this matter like now.

This attempt also gave Wayne an interesting idea. Does his mission system only focus on the results of the mission, or does it require him to personally participate and complete it.

Can he recruit a few apprentices, and then let them work for him to complete the task of cutting leeks?

Of course, Wayne is just a fledgling demon hunter now. He has neither connections nor wealth, so it is too early to talk about these things.

But when he has enough power and strength in the future, he will definitely explore this aspect, develop the convenience of the system, and speed up its growth.

After getting dressed again, Wayne divided the money bag containing more than 1,500 ducats he had obtained last night, divided 800 pieces into another money bag, and hung it on his belt.

But the money bag was still too heavy and very conspicuous. It pulled his belt straight and looked a little weird.

He put on his coat, hid his money bag in the large coat, bent down and pushed open the curtain of the tent to look outside. In the dim underground ruins, there were already residents in the camp opposite.

The slim Toruvel is sitting by the campfire, holding a square whetstone and polishing an exquisite one-handed sword.

After last night's conversation, the relationship between the two is no longer as strange as before.

Wayne is not a social phobic. He has always been quite popular when he was a student. Although he is not a social person, there is no problem in normal communication.

With a smile on his face, he took the initiative to sit across from Toluvel, looked at each other with the female elf, and said directly:

"Toruvel, I have a small favor, can you help me?"

The female elf's hand that was polishing the sword paused for a moment, raised her head and looked into Wayne's eyes, and said:

"What do you need help with, Wayne, if you don't tell me clearly, I can't agree without permission."

Wayne was not polite to her and asked directly:

"Just a little thing."

"Do you have any spare horses here? I'd like to be able to purchase one."

Toluvel thought for two seconds, nodded, and said:

"There are a few pretty good horses that we snatched from the Kovind soldiers and are being herded in the forest outside the cave."

"I can give you one if you really want it."

"But now, we are being hunted by Kaedwen's soldiers, and coins are not of much use to us."

"Let's treat it as part of the reward for exploring the ruins this time and give it to you."

Wayne was a little surprised when he heard this. According to what he learned from Geralt, a good horse for traveling is probably worth about 800 ducats. In this era, it is considered a relatively precious thing.

It seems that Toluvel attaches great importance to this commission to clean up the ruins, and the remuneration he is willing to pay is much more generous than those of the villagers.

However, he is not a man who likes to take advantage of others in terms of material things. Rather than getting a horse for nothing, he would rather get the trophies from the elven ruins.

Wayne reached for the huge money bag hanging on his belt, threw it in front of Toluvel, and said in a persuasive tone:

"No, Toluvel, you need money more than you think."

"There are a total of eight hundred ducats here, which should be the market price of horses in human towns."

"As for the role of money, Toruvel, you underestimate them."

"Haven't you noticed? In human society, money is almost omnipotent."

"It allows you to buy supplies needed for survival in the city, it allows you to buy weapons and equipment needed for combat, it allows you to bribe the city guards and rescue fellow non-human race compatriots in prison."

"As long as your wealth is strong enough, you can even hire a mercenary army to help you defeat the armies of other kingdoms on the frontal battlefield."

"Just like the original Kingdom of Kevir, it was precisely because they had huge wealth that many kingdoms that wanted to conquer it failed."

Toluvel seemed to understand what she heard. She looked at the huge money bag on the ground, thought about it for a few seconds, and then raised a question and said:

"But those human merchants, city guards, or mercenary legions cannot be trusted at all."

"They may not only defraud us of our coins, but may even betray our whereabouts to the nobles."

"Many of our compatriots of non-human races here were betrayed by their neighbors and friends."

"Human beings cannot be trusted."

Regarding this issue, Wayne felt that Toluvel's vision was too narrow, or his thinking was not broad enough. He reached out and took the whetstone from the elf's hand, took out the steel sword on his back, and carefully lit the campfire. He polished the ground and said:

"In this case, there are actually many ways, whether it is to transport it to a country that does not hate non-human races, or find a trustworthy businessman to help you prepare supplies, or simply control a puppet through threats and inducements. Not a bad idea.”

"Besides, aren't there also warlocks among the elves? You can entrust them to make a magic prop that can hide the characteristics of the elves, and you can disguise yourself as humans and sneak into the town to do things."

"There are many ways to achieve something, it just depends on whether you think of it or not."

Looking at Toluwell's eyes that became a little brighter, Wayne smiled and said:

"I will be here during the period of cleaning up this ruins. If you have any questions that are undecided, I can refer to them for you."

The elf leader heard the words, smiled back at Wayne, stood up, pointed to the exit of the cave, and said:

"Thank you, Wayne, I will ask you for more advice during this time."

"I've accepted your money. Let's go outside and look at the horses. You can choose any one you want."
